We like these shredders so much we purchased 3 more after we've had our first one for at least 5 years, which by the way is still going strong. We do so much shredding that we decided everyone in the office needed one desk side. You can shred quite a few pieces at one time. We get so much junk mail we need to shred it and we don't even have to open the mail, just feed the entire envelope through and it handles it like a champ.

This shredder is quiet, powerful, and creates very small particles. It's a great deal for the price. We use it daily, but have only had it a month, so its durability is yet to be determined. It's attractive and was easy to set up and operate. The only minor issue is that paper sometimes flops over as it's feeding in and triggers the safety mechanism, stopping the shredder. It doesn't happen often, so it's not bothersome.

Decided to go with a better name brand and happy I did! love the features on this product especially the power saver. Caught up with all our shredding with no problems. Love the fact I was given instructions on how to oil the product with a small bottle included.

We bought a Fellows Shredder in the 90's and it always preformed well for us. After we retired and settled in a new home in Florida we decided it was time to clean out the file cabinets from work. We decided to buy a new Fellows Shredder, but a larger one than what we had. This new cross cut, jam proof Fellows Shredder runs great and runs quiet. The Fellows Shredder is just a great piece of office equipment.

Fellowes makes a great shredder. I purchased the powershred 79Ci and I'm very satisfied with my choice. It is the quietest shredder I have ever owned. Powerful enough to shred 16 sheets at once. I like the safety features which protects you from injuries. It is compact and durable. The Jam Resistant feature was a big consideration in making this purchase. For the price it offers a lot.

I am very pleased with my new Fellowes 79Ci shredder. I replaced a lower capacity shredder from another manufacturer when it became damaged. I almost cannot believe how my efficiency has increased with the 79Ci. What would take hours to shred before, now only takes minutes. I am actually happy that my previous unit was damaged and required replacement. The increased efficiency is well worth the investment!

Was tired of replacing my shredder in my home office every year and decided on this model after reading the reviews. Unit is very durable and I think this might be a keeper. It works really well and is very safe. Few things could be better- gets hot and shuts down after about a half hour of heavy shredding but cools down in about 15 minutes- also, it is really messing dumping the unit as the bag gets stuck in the pail and rips. It has a front draw to get the pail out(one of the reasons i bought this model)however getting the bag out causes some problems- all in all I like this unit.

Love this shredder. THEY MUST DO A BETTER JOB WITH THE MANUAL. PUTTING ON THE CASTERS WAS A NIGHT MARE. IT TOOK MORE TIME TO DO THAT THAN ASSEMBLE THE ENTIRE SHREDDER.NEVER HAD PLASTIC BAGS BEFORE DO YOU PUT BAGS INTO BIN?? MANUAL DID NOT SAY SO I DID NOT DO IT. PLEASE REWRITE MANUAL. I HAD TO GO ONLINE AND RESEARCH BAGS AND CASTERS. TAKING WAY TO MUCH TIME TO ASSEMBLE.

Have had two previous Fellowes Shredders: Both were quiet, strong, and capable. Tried a "store brand" before this purchase due to price and mocro-cut capabiliity. Had it home one day and returned it due to poor construction and extremely noisy operation. Fellowes is far better for quality construction and quiet operation. I would, however, prefer a Fellowes micro-cut in a more affordable price range for home office.

I had to replace my old shredder as it died the other week. It was not a Fellowes. I called a friend and asked what kind she had. She gave me the model number and said she had not had a thing go wrong with hers and she has had it some time. Since I did not want to go "shopping" around, I ordered it over the internet. It arrived in a few days. I is the quietest shredder I have ever heard! It shreds paper fast and no jamming. I have shredded credit cards and CDs which normally ruin a regular shredder. I would recommend this particular model to anyone.
